What is street furniture?

Street furniture generally refers to all the facilities set up on the street, such as street lights, seats, signs, traffic signs and so on. The term appeared in Europe in the 1960s when public art was just beginning to sprout. Under the leadership of Marc Aure, the design world began to appreciate its beauty and quality. Even as early as Roman times, street furniture in public Spaces was connected to the transportation system in various ways. At that time, horses were the main means of transportation, and these raised step stones were set up to facilitate the mounting and dismounting of horses. Combined with finance, architecture, landscape and engineering from the perspective of urban design, the Grand renovation improves urban public health and enhances the visual impression of urban public space by systemizing and modernizing the entire urban space, including the establishment of architectural style, the widening of the standards of street and square space, the addition of cultural sites and green Spaces, so that street furniture can be generalized and institutionalized. To complement the overall visual design of the street space, Haussmann assigned architects to lead the design of the street furniture. He turned to a variety of design products, such as the Shitov gas street lamp designed by architect and archaeologist Shitov, which is designed to enhance the safety of the street at night.

What's the first thing you notice when you walk down the street? Is it the road under your feet? Or the phone in your hand? Or a shop window by the side of the road? But most people don't seem to pay much attention to the utilities on the street. After all, these public facilities seem to us to be for display or guidance. For this reason, the real social significance of these public facilities is often the most overlooked and least understood.

The "human touch" of a city is not only reflected in the local customs and customs, but also the design of street furniture in a city can reflect the tolerance and warmth of the city for its people. Although we can not prevent the appearance of homeless people, but we can do is to use design to convey emotion, and use design to achieve emotion.

Nowadays, street is the intersection of urban living space and public space. Compared with pure art and pure industrial products, street furniture has the feature of "place" meaning, which is inseparable from the space and place. Therefore, in addition to the continuation of artistic performance and functional needs, street furniture also adds a side of interaction with citizens. Street furniture is no longer just a public service facility, but gradually shows the value of street space between people and the interaction between people and space. The meaning behind street furniture, a piece of grass in a city, often contains the meaning that the city wants to convey. As mentioned in the story about the museum, "The museum is not only what the city looks like in its own eyes, but also what the city wants to look like in the eyes of others". The existence of street furniture is not only the hardware facilities on the roadside, but also the aesthetic, practical, systematic, social and other meanings of public space.
